UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator

UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. That's a battery used to power some type of computer or a web server in order to avoid the loss of info in case the main source of energy fails for reasons unknown or becomes risky. A diesel generator is more or less self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are used as a backup in data centers to back up the main power source and to guarantee the consistent functioning of all the machines located there. As the UPS operates all the time, it offers the necessary power for the servers to remain operational until the generator starts and takes over. Using this type of a backup is a must for any data center or hosting company that wants to keep their hardware and info intact in case there is a power surge or outage, as it gives them ample time to react until the issue is resolved and the main power supply is restored.

We offer you Linux hosting in 3 of the largest data centers throughout the world. They're situated in the USA, in the UK and in Australia. Considering that data integrity and server uptime are our priorities, all 3 facilities have a number of backup systems against power outages. A few diesel generators can keep the hosting servers operational for hours or even for a couple of days and each machine that is part of our cutting-edge cloud platform has its own enterprise-class UPS to keep it functional until the generators begin working. This setup is one of the reasons why we are able to ensure a 99.9% web server and network uptime, so if you host your websites in a shared account with our company, you'll benefit from a fast and remarkable service without worrying about any disruptions due to electric power outages.
